Active Support

  • Fix AS::MessagePack with ENV["RAILS_MAX_THREADS"].

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Add a new public API for broadcasting logs

    This feature existed for a while but was until now a private API.
    Broadcasting log allows to send log message to difference sinks (STDOUT, a file ...) and
    is used by default in the development environment to write logs both on STDOUT and in the
    "development.log" file.

    Basic usage:

    stdout_logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
    file_logger = Logger.new("development.log")
    broadcast = ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger.new(stdout_logger, file_logger)
    
    broadcast.info("Hello!") # The "Hello!" message is written on STDOUT and in the log file.

    Adding other sink(s) to the broadcast:

    broadcast = ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger.new
    broadcast.broadcast_to(Logger.new(STDERR))

    Remove a sink from the broadcast:

    stdout_logger = Logger.new(STDOUT)
    broadcast = ActiveSupport::BroadcastLogger.new(stdout_logger)
    
    broadcast.stop_broadcasting_to(stdout_logger)

  • Fix Range#overlap? not taking empty ranges into account on Ruby < 3.3

    Nobuyoshi Nakada, Shouichi Kamiya, Hartley McGuire

  • Use Ruby 3.3 Range#overlap? if available

    Yasuo Honda

  • Add bigdecimal as Active Support dependency that is a bundled gem candidate for Ruby 3.4.

    bigdecimal 3.1.4 or higher version will be installed.
    Ruby 2.7 and 3.0 users who want bigdecimal version 2.0.0 or 3.0.0 behavior as a default gem,
    pin the bigdecimal version in your application Gemfile.

    Koichi ITO

  • Add drb, mutex_m and base64 that are bundled gem candidates for Ruby 3.4

    Yasuo Honda

  • When using cache format version >= 7.1 or a custom serializer, expired and
    version-mismatched cache entries can now be detected without deserializing
    their values.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Make all cache stores return a boolean for #delete

    Previously the RedisCacheStore#delete would return 1 if the entry
    exists and 0 otherwise. Now it returns true if the entry exists and false
    otherwise, just like the other stores.

    The FileStore would return nil if the entry doesn't exists and returns
    false now as well.

    Petrik de Heus

  • Active Support cache stores now support replacing the default compressor via
    a :compressor option. The specified compressor must respond to deflate
    and inflate. For example:

    module MyCompressor
      def self.deflate(string)
        # compression logic...
      end
    
      def self.inflate(compressed)
        # decompression logic...
      end
    end
    
    config.cache_store = :redis_cache_store, { compressor: MyCompressor }

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Active Support cache stores now support a :serializer option. Similar to
    the :coder option, serializers must respond to dump and load. However,
    serializers are only responsible for serializing a cached value, whereas
    coders are responsible for serializing the entire ActiveSupport::Cache::Entry
    instance. Additionally, the output from serializers can be automatically
    compressed, whereas coders are responsible for their own compression.

    Specifying a serializer instead of a coder also enables performance
    optimizations, including the bare string optimization introduced by cache
    format version 7.1.

    The :serializer and :coder options are mutually exclusive. Specifying
    both will raise an ArgumentError.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Fix ActiveSupport::Inflector.humanize(nil) raising NoMethodError: undefined method `end_with?' for nil:NilClass.

    James Robinson

  • Don't show secrets for ActiveSupport::KeyGenerator#inspect.

    Before:

    ActiveSupport::KeyGenerator.new(secret).inspect
    "#<ActiveSupport::KeyGenerator:0x0000000104888038 ... @secret=\"\\xAF\\bFh]LV}q\\nl\\xB2U\\xB3 ... >"

    After:

    ActiveSupport::KeyGenerator::Aes256Gcm(secret).inspect
    "#<ActiveSupport::KeyGenerator:0x0000000104888038>"

    Petrik de Heus

  • Improve error message when EventedFileUpdateChecker is used without a
    compatible version of the Listen gem

    Hartley McGuire

  • Add :report behavior for Deprecation

    Setting config.active_support.deprecation = :report uses the error
    reporter to report deprecation warnings to ActiveSupport::ErrorReporter.

    Deprecations are reported as handled errors, with a severity of :warning.

    Useful to report deprecations happening in production to your bug tracker.

    Étienne Barrié

  • Rename Range#overlaps? to #overlap? and add alias for backwards compatibility

    Christian Schmidt

  • Fix EncryptedConfiguration returning incorrect values for some Hash
    methods

    Hartley McGuire

  • Don't show secrets for MessageEncryptor#inspect.

    Before:

    ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new(secret, cipher: "aes-256-gcm").inspect
    "#<ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor:0x0000000104888038 ... @secret=\"\\xAF\\bFh]LV}q\\nl\\xB2U\\xB3 ... >"

    After:

    ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new(secret, cipher: "aes-256-gcm").inspect
    "#<ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor:0x0000000104888038>"

    Petrik de Heus

  • Don't show contents for EncryptedConfiguration#inspect.

    Before:

    Rails.application.credentials.inspect
    "#<ActiveSupport::EncryptedConfiguration:0x000000010d2b38e8 ... @config={:secret=>\"something secret\"} ... @key_file_contents=\"915e4ea054e011022398dc242\" ...>"

    After:

    Rails.application.credentials.inspect
    "#<ActiveSupport::EncryptedConfiguration:0x000000010d2b38e8>"

    Petrik de Heus

  • ERB::Util.html_escape_once always returns an html_safe string.

    This method previously maintained the html_safe? property of a string on the return
    value. Because this string has been escaped, however, not marking it as html_safe causes
    entities to be double-escaped.

    As an example, take this view snippet:

    <p><%= html_escape_once("this & that &amp; the other") %></p>

    Before this change, that would be double-escaped and render as:

    <p>this &amp;amp; that &amp;amp; the other</p>

    After this change, it renders correctly as:

    <p>this &amp; that &amp; the other</p>

    Fixes #48256

    Mike Dalessio

  • Deprecate SafeBuffer#clone_empty.

    This method has not been used internally since Rails 4.2.0.

    Mike Dalessio

  • MessageEncryptor, MessageVerifier, and config.active_support.message_serializer
    now accept :message_pack and :message_pack_allow_marshal as serializers.
    These serializers require the msgpack gem
    (>= 1.7.0).

    The Message Pack format can provide improved performance and smaller payload
    sizes. It also supports round-tripping some Ruby types that are not supported
    by JSON. For example:

    verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new("secret")
    data = [{ a: 1 }, { b: 2 }.with_indifferent_access, 1.to_d, Time.at(0, 123)]
    message = verifier.generate(data)
    
    # BEFORE with config.active_support.message_serializer = :json
    verifier.verified(message)
    # => [{"a"=>1}, {"b"=>2}, "1.0", "1969-12-31T18:00:00.000-06:00"]
    verifier.verified(message).map(&:class)
    # => [Hash, Hash, String, String]
    
    # AFTER with config.active_support.message_serializer = :message_pack
    verifier.verified(message)
    # => [{:a=>1}, {"b"=>2}, 0.1e1, 1969-12-31 18:00:00.000123 -0600]
    verifier.verified(message).map(&:class)
    # => [Hash, ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess, BigDecimal, Time]

    The :message_pack serializer can fall back to deserializing with
    ActiveSupport::JSON when necessary, and the :message_pack_allow_marshal
    serializer can fall back to deserializing with Marshal as well as
    ActiveSupport::JSON. Additionally, the :marshal, :json, and
    :json_allow_marshal serializers can now fall back to deserializing with
    ActiveSupport::MessagePack when necessary. These behaviors ensure old
    messages can still be read so that migration is easier.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • A new 7.1 cache format is available which includes an optimization for
    bare string values such as view fragments.

    The 7.1 cache format is used by default for new apps, and existing apps
    can enable the format by setting config.load_defaults 7.1 or by setting
    config.active_support.cache_format_version = 7.1 in config/application.rb
    or a config/environments/*.rb file.

    Cache entries written using the 6.1 or 7.0 cache formats can be read
    when using the 7.1 format. To perform a rolling deploy of a Rails 7.1
    upgrade, wherein servers that have not yet been upgraded must be able to
    read caches from upgraded servers, leave the cache format unchanged on the
    first deploy, then enable the 7.1 cache format on a subsequent deploy.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Active Support cache stores can now use a preconfigured serializer based on
    ActiveSupport::MessagePack via the :serializer option:

    config.cache_store = :redis_cache_store, { serializer: :message_pack }

    The :message_pack serializer can reduce cache entry sizes and improve
    performance, but requires the msgpack gem
    (>= 1.7.0).

    The :message_pack serializer can read cache entries written by the default
    serializer, and the default serializer can now read entries written by the
    :message_pack serializer. These behaviors make it easy to migrate between
    serializer without invalidating the entire cache.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Object#deep_dup no longer duplicate named classes and modules.

    Before:

    hash = { class: Object, module: Kernel }
    hash.deep_dup # => {:class=>#<Class:0x00000001063ffc80>, :module=>#<Module:0x00000001063ffa00>}

    After:

    hash = { class: Object, module: Kernel }
    hash.deep_dup # => {:class=>Object, :module=>Kernel}

    Jean Boussier

  • Consistently raise an ArgumentError if the ActiveSupport::Cache key is blank.

    Joshua Young

  • Deprecate usage of the singleton ActiveSupport::Deprecation.

    All usage of ActiveSupport::Deprecation as a singleton is deprecated, the most common one being
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn. Gem authors should now create their own deprecator (ActiveSupport::Deprecation
    object), and use it to emit deprecation warnings.

    Calling any of the following without specifying a deprecator argument is also deprecated:

    • Module.deprecate
    • deprecate_constant
    • DeprecatedObjectProxy
    • DeprecatedInstanceVariableProxy
    • DeprecatedConstantProxy
    • deprecation-related test assertions

    Use of ActiveSupport::Deprecation.silence and configuration methods like behavior=, disallowed_behavior=,
    disallowed_warnings= should now be aimed at the application's deprecators.

    Rails.application.deprecators.silence do
      # code that emits deprecation warnings
    end

    If your gem has a Railtie or Engine, it's encouraged to add your deprecator to the application's deprecators, that
    way the deprecation related configuration options will apply to it as well, e.g.
    config.active_support.report_deprecations set to false in the production environment will also disable your
    deprecator.

    initializer "my_gem.deprecator" do |app|
      app.deprecators[:my_gem] = MyGem.deprecator
    end

    Étienne Barrié

  • Add Object#with to set and restore public attributes around a block

    client.timeout # => 5
    client.with(timeout: 1) do
      client.timeout # => 1
    end
    client.timeout # => 5

    Jean Boussier

  • Remove deprecated support to generate incorrect RFC 4122 UUIDs when providing a namespace ID that is not one of the
    constants defined on Digest::UUID.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Deprecate config.active_support.use_rfc4122_namespaced_uuids.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove implicit conversion of objects into String by ActiveSupport::SafeBuffer.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated active_support/core_ext/range/include_time_with_zone file.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Deprecate config.active_support.remove_deprecated_time_with_zone_name.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated override of ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone.name.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Deprecate config.active_support.disable_to_s_conversion.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated option to passing a format to #to_s in Array, Range, Date, DateTime, Time,
    BigDecimal, Float and, Integer.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated ActiveSupport::PerThreadRegistry.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated override of Enumerable#sum.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Deprecated initializing a ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore with an instance of Dalli::Client.

    Deprecate the undocumented option of providing an already-initialized instance of Dalli::Client to ActiveSupport::Cache::MemCacheStore. Such clients could be configured with unrecognized options, which could lead to unexpected behavior. Instead, provide addresses as documented.

  • Stub Time.new() in TimeHelpers#travel_to

    travel_to Time.new(2004, 11, 24) do
      # Inside the `travel_to` block `Time.new` is stubbed
      assert_equal 2004, Time.new.year
    end

  • Raise ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor::InvalidMessage from
    ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor#decrypt_and_verify regardless of cipher.
    Previously, when a MessageEncryptor was using a non-AEAD cipher such as
    AES-256-CBC, a corrupt or tampered message would raise
    ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature. Now, all ciphers raise
    the same error:

    encryptor = ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new("x" * 32, cipher: "aes-256-gcm")
    message = encryptor.encrypt_and_sign("message")
    encryptor.decrypt_and_verify(message.next)
    # => raises ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor::InvalidMessage
    
    encryptor = ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new("x" * 32, cipher: "aes-256-cbc")
    message = encryptor.encrypt_and_sign("message")
    encryptor.decrypt_and_verify(message.next)
    # BEFORE:
    # => raises ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature
    # AFTER:
    # => raises ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor::InvalidMessage

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Support nil original values when using ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier#verify.
    Previously, MessageVerifier#verify did not work with nil original
    values, though both MessageVerifier#verified and
    MessageEncryptor#decrypt_and_verify do:

    encryptor = ActiveSupport::MessageEncryptor.new(secret)
    message = encryptor.encrypt_and_sign(nil)
    
    encryptor.decrypt_and_verify(message)
    # => nil
    
    verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new(secret)
    message = verifier.generate(nil)
    
    verifier.verified(message)
    # => nil
    
    verifier.verify(message)
    # BEFORE:
    # => raises ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier::InvalidSignature
    # AFTER:
    # => nil

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Maintain html_safe? on html_safe strings when sliced with slice, slice!, or chr method.

    Previously, html_safe? was only maintained when the html_safe strings were sliced
    with [] method. Now, slice, slice!, and chr methods will maintain html_safe? like [] method.

    string = "<div>test</div>".html_safe
    string.slice(0, 1).html_safe? # => true
    string.slice!(0, 1).html_safe? # => true
    # maintain html_safe? after the slice!
    string.html_safe? # => true
    string.chr.html_safe? # => true

    Michael Go

  • Add Object#in? support for open ranges.

    assert Date.today.in?(..Date.tomorrow)
    assert_not Date.today.in?(Date.tomorrow..)

    Ignacio Galindo

  • config.i18n.raise_on_missing_translations = true now raises on any missing translation.

    Previously it would only raise when called in a view or controller. Now it will raise
    anytime I18n.t is provided an unrecognised key.

    If you do not want this behaviour, you can customise the i18n exception handler. See the
    upgrading guide or i18n guide for more information.

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • ActiveSupport::CurrentAttributes now raises if a restricted attribute name is used.

    Attributes such as set and reset cannot be used as they clash with the
    CurrentAttributes public API.

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • HashWithIndifferentAccess#transform_keys now takes a Hash argument, just
    as Ruby's Hash#transform_keys does.

    Akira Matsuda

  • delegate now defines method with proper arity when delegating to a Class.
    With this change, it defines faster method (3.5x faster with no argument).
    However, in order to gain this benefit, the delegation target method has to
    be defined before declaring the delegation.

    # This defines 3.5 times faster method than before
    class C
      def self.x() end
      delegate :x, to: :class
    end
    
    class C
      # This works but silently falls back to old behavior because
      # `delegate` cannot find the definition of `x`
      delegate :x, to: :class
      def self.x() end
    end

    Akira Matsuda

  • assert_difference message now includes what changed.

    This makes it easier to debug non-obvious failures.

    Before:

    "User.count" didn't change by 32.
    Expected: 1611
      Actual: 1579
    

    After:

    "User.count" didn't change by 32, but by 0.
    Expected: 1611
      Actual: 1579
    

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Add ability to match exception messages to assert_raises assertion

    Instead of this

    error = assert_raises(ArgumentError) do
      perform_service(param: 'exception')
    end
    assert_match(/incorrect param/i, error.message)

    you can now write this

    assert_raises(ArgumentError, match: /incorrect param/i) do
      perform_service(param: 'exception')
    end

    fatkodima

  • Add Rails.env.local? shorthand for Rails.env.development? || Rails.env.test?.

    DHH

  • ActiveSupport::Testing::TimeHelpers now accepts named with_usec argument
    to freeze_time, travel, and travel_to methods. Passing true prevents
    truncating the destination time with change(usec: 0).

    KevSlashNull, and serprex

  • ActiveSupport::CurrentAttributes.resets now accepts a method name

    The block API is still the recommended approach, but now both APIs are supported:

    class Current < ActiveSupport::CurrentAttributes
      resets { Time.zone = nil }
      resets :clear_time_zone
    end

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Ensure ActiveSupport::Testing::Isolation::Forking closes pipes

    Previously, Forking.run_in_isolation opened two ends of a pipe. The fork
    process closed the read end, wrote to it, and then terminated (which
    presumably closed the file descriptors on its end). The parent process
    closed the write end, read from it, and returned, never closing the read
    end.

    This resulted in an accumulation of open file descriptors, which could
    cause errors if the limit is reached.

    Sam Bostock

  • Fix Time#change and Time#advance for times around the end of Daylight
    Saving Time.

    Previously, when Time#change or Time#advance constructed a time inside
    the final stretch of Daylight Saving Time (DST), the non-DST offset would
    always be chosen for local times:

    # DST ended just before 2021-11-07 2:00:00 AM in US/Eastern.
    ENV["TZ"] = "US/Eastern"
    
    time = Time.local(2021, 11, 07, 00, 59, 59) + 1
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    time.advance(seconds: 0)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    
    time = Time.local(2021, 11, 06, 01, 00, 00)
    # => 2021-11-06 01:00:00 -0400
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    time.advance(days: 1)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500

    And the DST offset would always be chosen for times with a TimeZone
    object:

    Time.zone = "US/Eastern"
    
    time = Time.new(2021, 11, 07, 02, 00, 00, Time.zone) - 3600
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    time.advance(seconds: 0)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    
    time = Time.new(2021, 11, 8, 01, 00, 00, Time.zone)
    # => 2021-11-08 01:00:00 -0500
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    time.advance(days: -1)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400

    Now, Time#change and Time#advance will choose the offset that matches
    the original time's offset when possible:

    ENV["TZ"] = "US/Eastern"
    
    time = Time.local(2021, 11, 07, 00, 59, 59) + 1
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    time.advance(seconds: 0)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    
    time = Time.local(2021, 11, 06, 01, 00, 00)
    # => 2021-11-06 01:00:00 -0400
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    time.advance(days: 1)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0400
    
    Time.zone = "US/Eastern"
    
    time = Time.new(2021, 11, 07, 02, 00, 00, Time.zone) - 3600
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    time.advance(seconds: 0)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    
    time = Time.new(2021, 11, 8, 01, 00, 00, Time.zone)
    # => 2021-11-08 01:00:00 -0500
    time.change(day: 07)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500
    time.advance(days: -1)
    # => 2021-11-07 01:00:00 -0500

  • Fix MemoryStore to preserve entries TTL when incrementing or decrementing

    This is to be more consistent with how MemCachedStore and RedisCacheStore behaves.

    Jean Boussier

  • Rails.error.handle and Rails.error.record filter now by multiple error classes.

    Rails.error.handle(IOError, ArgumentError) do
      1 + '1' # raises TypeError
    end
    1 + 1 # TypeErrors are not IOErrors or ArgumentError, so this will *not* be handled

    Martin Spickermann

  • Class#subclasses and Class#descendants now automatically filter reloaded classes.

    Previously they could return old implementations of reloadable classes that have been
    dereferenced but not yet garbage collected.

    They now automatically filter such classes like DescendantTracker#subclasses and
    DescendantTracker#descendants.

    Jean Boussier

  • Rails.error.report now marks errors as reported to avoid reporting them twice.

    In some cases, users might want to report errors explicitly with some extra context
    before letting it bubble up.

    This also allows to safely catch and report errors outside of the execution context.

  • Add assert_error_reported and assert_no_error_reported

    Allows to easily asserts an error happened but was handled

    report = assert_error_reported(IOError) do
      # ...
    end
    assert_equal "Oops", report.error.message
    assert_equal "admin", report.context[:section]
    assert_equal :warning, report.severity
    assert_predicate report, :handled?

  • ActiveSupport::Deprecation behavior callbacks can now receive the
    deprecator instance as an argument. This makes it easier for such callbacks
    to change their behavior based on the deprecator's state. For example,
    based on the deprecator's debug flag.

    3-arity and splat-args callbacks such as the following will now be passed
    the deprecator instance as their third argument:

    • ->(message, callstack, deprecator) { ... }
    • ->(*args) { ... }
    • ->(message, *other_args) { ... }

    2-arity and 4-arity callbacks such as the following will continue to behave
    the same as before:

    • ->(message, callstack) { ... }
    • ->(message, callstack, deprecation_horizon, gem_name) { ... }
    • ->(message, callstack, *deprecation_details) { ... }

    Jonathan Hefner

  • ActiveSupport::Deprecation#disallowed_warnings now affects the instance on
    which it is configured.

    This means that individual ActiveSupport::Deprecation instances can be
    configured with their own disallowed warnings, and the global
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.disallowed_warnings now only affects the global
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn.

    Before

    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.disallowed_warnings = ["foo"]
    deprecator = ActiveSupport::Deprecation.new("2.0", "MyCoolGem")
    deprecator.disallowed_warnings = ["bar"]
    
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn("foo") # => raise ActiveSupport::DeprecationException
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn("bar") # => print "DEPRECATION WARNING: bar"
    deprecator.warn("foo")                 # => raise ActiveSupport::DeprecationException
    deprecator.warn("bar")                 # => print "DEPRECATION WARNING: bar"

    After

    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.disallowed_warnings = ["foo"]
    deprecator = ActiveSupport::Deprecation.new("2.0", "MyCoolGem")
    deprecator.disallowed_warnings = ["bar"]
    
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn("foo") # => raise ActiveSupport::DeprecationException
    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn("bar") # => print "DEPRECATION WARNING: bar"
    deprecator.warn("foo")                 # => print "DEPRECATION WARNING: foo"
    deprecator.warn("bar")                 # => raise ActiveSupport::DeprecationException

    Note that global ActiveSupport::Deprecation methods such as ActiveSupport::Deprecation.warn
    and ActiveSupport::Deprecation.disallowed_warnings have been deprecated.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Add italic and underline support to ActiveSupport::LogSubscriber#color

    Previously, only bold text was supported via a positional argument.
    This allows for bold, italic, and underline options to be specified
    for colored logs.

    info color("Hello world!", :red, bold: true, underline: true)

    Gannon McGibbon

  • Add String#downcase_first method.

    This method is the corollary of String#upcase_first.

    Mark Schneider

  • thread_mattr_accessor will call .dup.freeze on non-frozen default values.

    This provides a basic level of protection against different threads trying
    to mutate a shared default object.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Add raise_on_invalid_cache_expiration_time config to ActiveSupport::Cache::Store

    Specifies if an ArgumentError should be raised if Rails.cache fetch or
    write are given an invalid expires_at or expires_in time.

    Options are true, and false. If false, the exception will be reported
    as handled and logged instead. Defaults to true if config.load_defaults >= 7.1.

    Trevor Turk

  • ActiveSupport::Cache:Store#fetch now passes an options accessor to the block.

    It makes possible to override cache options:

    Rails.cache.fetch("3rd-party-token") do |name, options|
      token = fetch_token_from_remote
      # set cache's TTL to match token's TTL
      options.expires_in = token.expires_in
      token
    end
    

    Andrii Gladkyi, Jean Boussier

  • default option of thread_mattr_accessor now applies through inheritance and
    also across new threads.

    Previously, the default value provided was set only at the moment of defining
    the attribute writer, which would cause the attribute to be uninitialized in
    descendants and in other threads.

    Fixes #43312.

    Thierry Deo

  • Redis cache store is now compatible with redis-rb 5.0.

    Jean Boussier

  • Add skip_nil: support to ActiveSupport::Cache::Store#fetch_multi.

    Daniel Alfaro

  • Add quarter method to date/time

    Matt Swanson

  • Fix NoMethodError on custom ActiveSupport::Deprecation behavior.

    ActiveSupport::Deprecation.behavior= was supposed to accept any object
    that responds to call, but in fact its internal implementation assumed that
    this object could respond to arity, so it was restricted to only Proc objects.

    This change removes this arity restriction of custom behaviors.

    Ryo Nakamura

  • Support :url_safe option for MessageEncryptor.

    The MessageEncryptor constructor now accepts a :url_safe option, similar
    to the MessageVerifier constructor. When enabled, this option ensures
    that messages use a URL-safe encoding.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Add url_safe option to ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier initializer

    ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new now takes optional url_safe argument.
    It can generate URL-safe strings by passing url_safe: true.

    verifier = ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier.new(url_safe: true)
    message = verifier.generate(data) # => URL-safe string

    This option is false by default to be backwards compatible.

    Shouichi Kamiya

  • Enable connection pooling by default for MemCacheStore and RedisCacheStore.

    If you want to disable connection pooling, set :pool option to false when configuring the cache store:

    config.cache_store = :mem_cache_store, "cache.example.com", pool: false

    fatkodima

  • Add force: support to ActiveSupport::Cache::Store#fetch_multi.

    fatkodima

  • Deprecated :pool_size and :pool_timeout options for configuring connection pooling in cache stores.

    Use pool: true to enable pooling with default settings:

    config.cache_store = :redis_cache_store, pool: true

    Or pass individual options via :pool option:

    config.cache_store = :redis_cache_store, pool: { size: 10, timeout: 2 }

    fatkodima

  • Allow #increment and #decrement methods of ActiveSupport::Cache::Store
    subclasses to set new values.

    Previously incrementing or decrementing an unset key would fail and return
    nil. A default will now be assumed and the key will be created.

    Andrej Blagojević, Eugene Kenny

  • Add skip_nil: support to RedisCacheStore

    Joey Paris

  • ActiveSupport::Cache::MemoryStore#write(name, val, unless_exist:true) now
    correctly writes expired keys.

    Alan Savage

  • ActiveSupport::ErrorReporter now accepts and forward a source: parameter.

    This allow libraries to signal the origin of the errors, and reporters
    to easily ignore some sources.

    Jean Boussier

  • Fix and add protections for XSS in ActionView::Helpers and ERB::Util.

    Add the method ERB::Util.xml_name_escape to escape dangerous characters
    in names of tags and names of attributes, following the specification of XML.

    Álvaro Martín Fraguas

  • Respect ActiveSupport::Logger.new's :formatter keyword argument

    The stdlib Logger::new allows passing a :formatter keyword argument to
    set the logger's formatter. Previously ActiveSupport::Logger.new ignored
    that argument by always setting the formatter to an instance of
    ActiveSupport::Logger::SimpleFormatter.

    Steven Harman

  • Deprecate preserving the pre-Ruby 2.4 behavior of to_time

    With Ruby 2.4+ the default for +to_time+ changed from converting to the
    local system time to preserving the offset of the receiver. At the time Rails
    supported older versions of Ruby so a compatibility layer was added to assist
    in the migration process. From Rails 5.0 new applications have defaulted to
    the Ruby 2.4+ behavior and since Rails 7.0 now only supports Ruby 2.7+
    this compatibility layer can be safely removed.

    To minimize any noise generated the deprecation warning only appears when the
    setting is configured to false as that is the only scenario where the
    removal of the compatibility layer has any effect.

    Andrew White

  • Pathname.blank? only returns true for Pathname.new("")

    Previously it would end up calling Pathname#empty? which returned true
    if the path existed and was an empty directory or file.

    That behavior was unlikely to be expected.

    Jean Boussier

  • Deprecate Notification::Event's #children and #parent_of?

    John Hawthorn

  • Change the default serializer of ActiveSupport::MessageVerifier from
    Marshal to ActiveSupport::JSON when using config.load_defaults 7.1.

    Messages serialized with Marshal can still be read, but new messages will
    be serialized with ActiveSupport::JSON. For more information, see
    https://guides.rubyonrails.org/v7.1/configuring.html#config-active-support-message-serializer.

Active Model

  • Remove change in the typography of user facing error messages.
    For example, “can’t be blank” is again “can't be blank”.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Support composite identifiers in to_key

    to_key avoids wrapping #id value into an Array if #id already an array

    Nikita Vasilevsky

  • Add ActiveModel::Conversion.param_delimiter to configure delimiter being used in to_param

    Nikita Vasilevsky

  • undefine_attribute_methods undefines alias attribute methods along with attribute methods.

  • Add a load hook for ActiveModel::Model (named active_model) to match the load hook for
    ActiveRecord::Base and allow for overriding aspects of the ActiveModel::Model class.

    Lewis Buckley

  • Improve password length validation in ActiveModel::SecurePassword to consider byte size for BCrypt
    compatibility.

    The previous password length validation only considered the character count, which may not
    accurately reflect the 72-byte size limit imposed by BCrypt. This change updates the validation
    to consider both character count and byte size while keeping the character length validation in place.

    user = User.new(password: "a" * 73)  # 73 characters
    user.valid? # => false
    user.errors[:password] # => ["is too long"]
    
    
    user = User.new(password: "あ" * 25)  # 25 characters, 75 bytes
    user.valid? # => false
    user.errors[:password] # => ["is too long"]

    ChatGPT, Guillermo Iguaran

  • has_secure_password now generates an #{attribute}_salt method that returns the salt
    used to compute the password digest. The salt will change whenever the password is changed,
    so it can be used to create single-use password reset tokens with generates_token_for:

    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      has_secure_password
    
      generates_token_for :password_reset, expires_in: 15.minutes do
        password_salt&.last(10)
      end
    end

    Lázaro Nixon

  • Improve typography of user facing error messages. In English contractions,
    the Unicode APOSTROPHE (U+0027) is now RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK
    (U+2019). For example, "can't be blank" is now "can’t be blank".

    Jon Dufresne

  • Add class to ActiveModel::MissingAttributeError error message.

    Show which class is missing the attribute in the error message:

    user = User.first
    user.pets.select(:id).first.user_id
    # => ActiveModel::MissingAttributeError: missing attribute 'user_id' for Pet

    Petrik de Heus

  • Raise NoMethodError in ActiveModel::Type::Value#as_json to avoid unpredictable
    results.

    Vasiliy Ermolovich

  • Custom attribute types that inherit from Active Model built-in types and do
    not override the serialize method will now benefit from an optimization
    when serializing attribute values for the database.

    For example, with a custom type like the following:

    class DowncasedString < ActiveModel::Type::String
      def cast(value)
        super&.downcase
      end
    end
    
    ActiveRecord::Type.register(:downcased_string, DowncasedString)
    
    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      attribute :email, :downcased_string
    end
    
    user = User.new(email: "FooBar@example.com")

    Serializing the email attribute for the database will be roughly twice as
    fast. More expensive cast operations will likely see greater improvements.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • has_secure_password now supports password challenges via a
    password_challenge accessor and validation.

    A password challenge is a safeguard to verify that the current user is
    actually the password owner. It can be used when changing sensitive model
    fields, such as the password itself. It is different than a password
    confirmation, which is used to prevent password typos.

    When password_challenge is set, the validation checks that the value's
    digest matches the currently persisted password_digest (i.e.
    password_digest_was).

    This allows a password challenge to be done as part of a typical update
    call, just like a password confirmation. It also allows a password
    challenge error to be handled in the same way as other validation errors.

    For example, in the controller, instead of:

    password_params = params.require(:password).permit(
      :password_challenge,
      :password,
      :password_confirmation,
    )
    
    password_challenge = password_params.delete(:password_challenge)
    @password_challenge_failed = !current_user.authenticate(password_challenge)
    
    if !@password_challenge_failed && current_user.update(password_params)
      # ...
    end

    You can now write:

    password_params = params.require(:password).permit(
      :password_challenge,
      :password,
      :password_confirmation,
    ).with_defaults(password_challenge: "")
    
    if current_user.update(password_params)
      # ...
    end

    And, in the view, instead of checking @password_challenge_failed, you can
    render an error for the password_challenge field just as you would for
    other form fields, including utilizing config.action_view.field_error_proc.

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Support infinite ranges for LengthValidators :in/:within options

    validates_length_of :first_name, in: ..30

    fatkodima

  • Add support for beginless ranges to inclusivity/exclusivity validators:

    validates_inclusion_of :birth_date, in: -> { (..Date.today) }
    validates_exclusion_of :birth_date, in: -> { (..Date.today) }

    Bo Jeanes

  • Make validators accept lambdas without record argument

    # Before
    validates_comparison_of :birth_date, less_than_or_equal_to: ->(_record) { Date.today }
    
    # After
    validates_comparison_of :birth_date, less_than_or_equal_to: -> { Date.today }

  • Fix casting long strings to Date, Time or DateTime

  • Use different cache namespace for proxy calls

    Models can currently have different attribute bodies for the same method
    names, leading to conflicts. Adding a new namespace :active_model_proxy
    fixes the issue.

Active Record

  • Remove -shm and -wal SQLite files when rails db:drop is run.

    Niklas Häusele

  • Revert the change to raise an ArgumentError when #accepts_nested_attributes_for is declared more than once for
    an association in the same class.

    The reverted behavior broke the case where the #accepts_nested_attributes_for was defined in a concern and
    where overridden in the class that included the concern.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Better naming for unique constraints support.

    Naming unique keys leads to misunderstanding it's a short-hand of unique indexes.
    Just naming it unique constraints is not misleading.

    In Rails 7.1.0.beta1 or before:

    add_unique_key :sections, [:position], deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_section_position"
    remove_unique_key :sections, name: "unique_section_position"

    Now:

    add_unique_constraint :sections, [:position], deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_section_position"
    remove_unique_constraint :sections, name: "unique_section_position"

    Ryuta Kamizono

  • Fix duplicate quoting for check constraint expressions in schema dump when using MySQL

    A check constraint with an expression, that already contains quotes, lead to an invalid schema
    dump with the mysql2 adapter.

    Felix Tscheulin

  • Performance tune the SQLite3 adapter connection configuration

    For Rails applications, the Write-Ahead-Log in normal syncing mode with a capped journal size, a healthy shared memory buffer and a shared cache will perform, on average, 2× better.

    Stephen Margheim

  • Allow SQLite3 busy_handler to be configured with simple max number of retries

    Retrying busy connections without delay is a preferred practice for performance-sensitive applications. Add support for a database.yml retries integer, which is used in a simple busy_handler function to retry busy connections without exponential backoff up to the max number of retries.

    Stephen Margheim

  • The SQLite3 adapter now supports supports_insert_returning?

    Implementing the full supports_insert_returning? contract means the SQLite3 adapter supports auto-populated columns (#48241) as well as custom primary keys.

    Stephen Margheim

  • Ensure the SQLite3 adapter handles default functions with the || concatenation operator

    Previously, this default function would produce the static string "'Ruby ' || 'on ' || 'Rails'".
    Now, the adapter will appropriately receive and use "Ruby on Rails".

    change_column_default "test_models", "ruby_on_rails", -> { "('Ruby ' || 'on ' || 'Rails')" }

    Stephen Margheim

  • Dump PostgreSQL schemas as part of the schema dump.

    Lachlan Sylvester

  • Encryption now supports support_unencrypted_data being set per-attribute.

    You can now opt out of support_unencrypted_data on a specific encrypted attribute.
    This only has an effect if ActiveRecord::Encryption.config.support_unencrypted_data == true.

    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      encrypts :name, deterministic: true, support_unencrypted_data: false
      encrypts :email, deterministic: true
    end

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Add instrumentation for Active Record transactions

    Allows subscribing to transaction events for tracking/instrumentation. The event payload contains the connection and the outcome (commit, rollback, restart, incomplete), as well as timing details.

    ActiveSupport::Notifications.subscribe("transaction.active_record") do |event|
      puts "Transaction event occurred!"
      connection = event.payload[:connection]
      puts "Connection: #{connection.inspect}"
    end

  • Adds support for if_not_exists when adding a check constraint.

    add_check_constraint :posts, "post_type IN ('blog', 'comment', 'share')", if_not_exists: true

    Cody Cutrer

  • Raise an ArgumentError when #accepts_nested_attributes_for is declared more than once for an association in
    the same class. Previously, the last declaration would silently override the previous one. Overriding in a subclass
    is still allowed.

    Joshua Young

  • Deprecate rewhere argument on #merge.

    The rewhere argument on #mergeis deprecated without replacement and
    will be removed in Rails 7.2.

    Adam Hess

  • Fix unscope is not working in specific case

    Before:

    Post.where(id: 1...3).unscope(where: :id).to_sql # "SELECT `posts`.* FROM `posts` WHERE `posts`.`id` >= 1 AND `posts`.`id` < 3"

    After:

    Post.where(id: 1...3).unscope(where: :id).to_sql # "SELECT `posts`.* FROM `posts`"

    Fixes #48094.

    Kazuya Hatanaka

  • Change has_secure_token default to on: :initialize

    Change the new default value from on: :create to on: :initialize

    Contract.new(status: "unknown").valid? # => false
    Contract.new(status: nil).valid? # => true
    Contract.new(status: "completed").valid? # => true

    Edem Topuzov, Ryuta Kamizono

  • Allow batching methods to use already loaded relation if available

    Calling batch methods on already loaded relations will use the records previously loaded instead of retrieving
    them from the database again.

    Adam Hess

  • Deprecate read_attribute(:id) returning the primary key if the primary key is not :id.

    Starting in Rails 7.2, read_attribute(:id) will return the value of the id column, regardless of the model's
    primary key. To retrieve the value of the primary key, use #id instead. read_attribute(:id) for composite
    primary key models will now return the value of the id column.

  • Fix previous change tracking for ActiveRecord::Store when using a column with JSON structured database type

    Before, the methods to access the changes made during the last save #saved_change_to_key?, #saved_change_to_key, and #key_before_last_save did not work if the store was defined as a store_accessor on a column with a JSON structured database type

    Robert DiMartino

  • Fully support NULLS [NOT] DISTINCT for PostgreSQL 15+ indexes.

    Previous work was done to allow the index to be created in a migration, but it was not

    in the correct order, which could have resulted in inconsistent schema detection.

    Gregory Jones

  • Allow escaping of literal colon characters in sanitize_sql_* methods when named bind variables are used

    Justin Bull

  • Fix #previously_new_record? to return true for destroyed records.

    Before, if a record was created and then destroyed, #previously_new_record? would return true.
    Now, any UPDATE or DELETE to a record is considered a change, and will result in #previously_new_record?
    returning false.

    Petrik de Heus

  • Bring back the historical behavior of committing transaction on non-local return.

    Model.transaction do
      model.save
      return
      other_model.save # not executed
    end

    Historically only raised errors would trigger a rollback, but in Ruby 2.3, the timeout library
    started using throw to interrupt execution which had the adverse effect of committing open transactions.

    To solve this, in Active Record 6.1 the behavior was changed to instead rollback the transaction as it was safer
    than to potentially commit an incomplete transaction.

    Using return, break or throw inside a transaction block was essentially deprecated from Rails 6.1 onwards.

    However with the release of timeout 0.4.0, Timeout.timeout now raises an error again, and Active Record is able
    to return to its original, less surprising, behavior.

    This historical behavior can now be opt-ed in via:

    Rails.application.config.active_record.commit_transaction_on_non_local_return = true
    

    And is the default for new applications created in Rails 7.1.

  • Deprecate name argument on #remove_connection.

    The name argument is deprecated on #remove_connection without replacement. #remove_connection should be called directly on the class that established the connection.

  • Fix has_one through singular building with inverse.

    Allows building of records from an association with a has_one through a
    singular association with inverse. For belongs_to through associations,
    linking the foreign key to the primary key model isn't needed.
    For has_one, we cannot build records due to the association not being mutable.

  • Disable database prepared statements when query logs are enabled

    Prepared Statements and Query Logs are incompatible features due to query logs making every query unique.

    zzak, Jean Boussier

  • Support decrypting data encrypted non-deterministically with a SHA1 hash digest.

    This adds a new Active Record encryption option to support decrypting data encrypted
    non-deterministically with a SHA1 hash digest:

    Rails.application.config.active_record.encryption.support_sha1_for_non_deterministic_encryption = true
    

    The new option addresses a problem when upgrading from 7.0 to 7.1. Due to a bug in how Active Record
    Encryption was getting initialized, the key provider used for non-deterministic encryption were using
    SHA-1 as its digest class, instead of the one configured globally by Rails via
    Rails.application.config.active_support.key_generator_hash_digest_class.

    Cadu Ribeiro and Jorge Manrubia

  • Added PostgreSQL migration commands for enum rename, add value, and rename value.

    rename_enum and rename_enum_value are reversible. Due to Postgres
    limitation, add_enum_value is not reversible since you cannot delete enum
    values. As an alternative you should drop and recreate the enum entirely.

    rename_enum :article_status, to: :article_state
    add_enum_value :article_state, "archived" # will be at the end of existing values
    add_enum_value :article_state, "in review", before: "published"
    add_enum_value :article_state, "approved", after: "in review"
    rename_enum_value :article_state, from: "archived", to: "deleted"

  • Allow composite primary key to be derived from schema

    Booting an application with a schema that contains composite primary keys
    will not issue warning and won't nilify the ActiveRecord::Base#primary_key value anymore.

    Given a travel_routes table definition and a TravelRoute model like:

    create_table :travel_routes, primary_key: [:origin, :destination], force: true do |t|
      t.string :origin
      t.string :destination
    end
    
    class TravelRoute < ActiveRecord::Base; end

    The TravelRoute.primary_key value will be automatically derived to ["origin", "destination"]

  • Include the connection_pool with exceptions raised from an adapter.

    The connection_pool provides added context such as the connection used
    that led to the exception as well as which role and shard.

    Luan Vieira

  • Support multiple column ordering for find_each, find_in_batches and in_batches.

    When find_each/find_in_batches/in_batches are performed on a table with composite primary keys, ascending or descending order can be selected for each key.

    Person.find_each(order: [:desc, :asc]) do |person|
      person.party_all_night!
    end

    Takuya Kurimoto

  • Fix where on association with has_one/has_many polymorphic relations.

    Before:

    Treasure.where(price_estimates: PriceEstimate.all)
    #=> SELECT (...) WHERE "treasures"."id" IN (SELECT "price_estimates"."estimate_of_id" FROM "price_estimates")

    Later:

    Treasure.where(price_estimates: PriceEstimate.all)
    #=> SELECT (...) WHERE "treasures"."id" IN (SELECT "price_estimates"."estimate_of_id" FROM "price_estimates" WHERE "price_estimates"."estimate_of_type" = 'Treasure')

  • Assign auto populated columns on Active Record record creation.

    Changes record creation logic to allow for the auto_increment column to be assigned
    immediately after creation regardless of it's relation to the model's primary key.

    The PostgreSQL adapter benefits the most from the change allowing for any number of auto-populated
    columns to be assigned on the object immediately after row insertion utilizing the RETURNING statement.

    Nikita Vasilevsky

  • Use the first key in the shards hash from connected_to for the default_shard.

    Some applications may not want to use :default as a shard name in their connection model. Unfortunately Active Record expects there to be a :default shard because it must assume a shard to get the right connection from the pool manager. Rather than force applications to manually set this, connects_to can infer the default shard name from the hash of shards and will now assume that the first shard is your default.

    For example if your model looked like this:

    class ShardRecord < ApplicationRecord
      self.abstract_class = true
    
      connects_to shards: {
        shard_one: { writing: :shard_one },
        shard_two: { writing: :shard_two }
      }

    Then the default_shard for this class would be set to shard_one.

    Fixes: #45390

  • Add ActiveRecord.disconnect_all! method to immediately close all connections from all pools.

    Jean Boussier

  • Discard connections which may have been left in a transaction.

    There are cases where, due to an error, within_new_transaction may unexpectedly leave a connection in an open transaction. In these cases the connection may be reused, and the following may occur:

    • Writes appear to fail when they actually succeed.
    • Writes appear to succeed when they actually fail.
    • Reads return stale or uncommitted data.

    Previously, the following case was detected:

    • An error is encountered during the transaction, then another error is encountered while attempting to roll it back.

    Now, the following additional cases are detected:

    • An error is encountered just after successfully beginning a transaction.
    • An error is encountered while committing a transaction, then another error is encountered while attempting to roll it back.
    • An error is encountered while rolling back a transaction.

    Nick Dower

  • Active Record query cache now evicts least recently used entries

    By default it only keeps the 100 most recently used queries.

    The cache size can be configured via database.yml

    development:
      adapter: mysql2
      query_cache: 200

    It can also be entirely disabled:

    development:
      adapter: mysql2
      query_cache: false

    Jean Boussier

  • Deprecate check_pending! in favor of check_all_pending!.

    check_pending! will only check for pending migrations on the current database connection or the one passed in. This has been deprecated in favor of check_all_pending! which will find all pending migrations for the database configurations in a given environment.

  • Add support for Array#intersect? to ActiveRecord::Relation.

    Array#intersect? is only available on Ruby 3.1 or later.

    This allows the Rubocop Style/ArrayIntersect cop to work with ActiveRecord::Relation objects.

    John Harry Kelly

  • The deferrable foreign key can be passed to t.references.

    Hiroyuki Ishii

  • Deprecate deferrable: true option of add_foreign_key.

    deferrable: true is deprecated in favor of deferrable: :immediate, and
    will be removed in Rails 7.2.

    Because deferrable: true and deferrable: :deferred are hard to understand.
    Both true and :deferred are truthy values.
    This behavior is the same as the deferrable option of the add_unique_key method, added in #46192.

    Hiroyuki Ishii

  • AbstractAdapter#execute and #exec_query now clear the query cache

    If you need to perform a read only SQL query without clearing the query
    cache, use AbstractAdapter#select_all.

    Jean Boussier

  • Make .joins / .left_outer_joins work with CTEs.

    For example:

    Post
     .with(commented_posts: Comment.select(:post_id).distinct)
     .joins(:commented_posts)
    #=> WITH (...) SELECT ... INNER JOIN commented_posts on posts.id = commented_posts.post_id

    Vladimir Dementyev

  • Add a load hook for ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::Mysql2Adapter
    (named active_record_mysql2adapter) to allow for overriding aspects of the
    ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::Mysql2Adapter class. This makes Mysql2Adapter
    consistent with PostgreSQLAdapter and SQLite3Adapter that already have load hooks.

  • Introduce adapter for Trilogy database client

    Trilogy is a MySQL-compatible database client. Rails applications can use Trilogy
    by configuring their config/database.yml:

    development:
    adapter: trilogy
    database: blog_development
    pool: 5

    Or by using the DATABASE_URL environment variable:

    ENV['DATABASE_URL'] # => "trilogy://localhost/blog_development?pool=5"

    Adrianna Chang

  • after_commit callbacks defined on models now execute in the correct order.

    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      after_commit { puts("this gets called first") }
      after_commit { puts("this gets called second") }
    end

    Previously, the callbacks executed in the reverse order. To opt in to the new behaviour:

    config.active_record.run_after_transaction_callbacks_in_order_defined = true

    This is the default for new apps.

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Infer foreign_key when inverse_of is present on has_one and has_many associations.

    has_many :citations, foreign_key: "book1_id", inverse_of: :book

    can be simplified to

    has_many :citations, inverse_of: :book

    and the foreign_key will be read from the corresponding belongs_to association.

    Daniel Whitney

  • Limit max length of auto generated index names

    Auto generated index names are now limited to 62 bytes, which fits within
    the default index name length limits for MySQL, Postgres and SQLite.

    Any index name over the limit will fallback to the new short format.

    Before (too long):

    index_testings_on_foo_and_bar_and_first_name_and_last_name_and_administrator
    

    After (short format):

    idx_on_foo_bar_first_name_last_name_administrator_5939248142
    

    The short format includes a hash to ensure the name is unique database-wide.

    Mike Coutermarsh

  • Introduce a more stable and optimized Marshal serializer for Active Record models.

    Can be enabled with config.active_record.marshalling_format_version = 7.1.

    Jean Boussier

  • Allow specifying where clauses with column-tuple syntax.

    Querying through #where now accepts a new tuple-syntax which accepts, as
    a key, an array of columns and, as a value, an array of corresponding tuples.
    The key specifies a list of columns, while the value is an array of
    ordered-tuples that conform to the column list.

    For instance:

    # Cpk::Book => Cpk::Book(author_id: integer, number: integer, title: string, revision: integer)
    # Cpk::Book.primary_key => ["author_id", "number"]
    
    book = Cpk::Book.create!(author_id: 1, number: 1)
    Cpk::Book.where(Cpk::Book.primary_key => [[1, 2]]) # => [book]
    
    # Topic => Topic(id: integer, title: string, author_name: string...)
    
    Topic.where([:title, :author_name] => [["The Alchemist", "Paulo Coelho"], ["Harry Potter", "J.K Rowling"]])

    Paarth Madan

  • Allow warning codes to be ignore when reporting SQL warnings.

    Active Record config that can ignore warning codes

    # Configure allowlist of warnings that should always be ignored
    config.active_record.db_warnings_ignore = [
      "1062", # MySQL Error 1062: Duplicate entry
    ]

    This is supported for the MySQL and PostgreSQL adapters.

    Nick Borromeo

  • Introduce :active_record_fixtures lazy load hook.

    Hooks defined with this name will be run whenever TestFixtures is included
    in a class.

    ActiveSupport.on_load(:active_record_fixtures) do
      self.fixture_paths << "test/fixtures"
    end
    
    klass = Class.new
    klass.include(ActiveRecord::TestFixtures)
    
    klass.fixture_paths # => ["test/fixtures"]

    Andrew Novoselac

  • Introduce TestFixtures#fixture_paths.

    Multiple fixture paths can now be specified using the #fixture_paths accessor.
    Apps will continue to have test/fixtures as their one fixture path by default,
    but additional fixture paths can be specified.

    ActiveSupport::TestCase.fixture_paths << "component1/test/fixtures"
    ActiveSupport::TestCase.fixture_paths << "component2/test/fixtures"

    TestFixtures#fixture_path is now deprecated.

    Andrew Novoselac

  • Adds support for deferrable exclude constraints in PostgreSQL.

    By default, exclude constraints in PostgreSQL are checked after each statement.
    This works for most use cases, but becomes a major limitation when replacing
    records with overlapping ranges by using multiple statements.

    exclusion_constraint :users, "daterange(valid_from, valid_to) WITH &&", deferrable: :immediate

    Passing deferrable: :immediate checks constraint after each statement,
    but allows manually deferring the check using SET CONSTRAINTS ALL DEFERRED
    within a transaction. This will cause the excludes to be checked after the transaction.

    It's also possible to change the default behavior from an immediate check
    (after the statement), to a deferred check (after the transaction):

    exclusion_constraint :users, "daterange(valid_from, valid_to) WITH &&", deferrable: :deferred

    Hiroyuki Ishii

  • Respect foreign_type option to delegated_type for {role}_class method.

    Usage of delegated_type with non-conventional {role}_type column names can now be specified with foreign_type option.
    This option is the same as foreign_type as forwarded to the underlying belongs_to association that delegated_type wraps.

    Jason Karns

  • Add support for unique constraints (PostgreSQL-only).

    add_unique_key :sections, [:position], deferrable: :deferred, name: "unique_section_position"
    remove_unique_key :sections, name: "unique_section_position"

    See PostgreSQL's Unique Constraints documentation for more on unique constraints.

    By default, unique constraints in PostgreSQL are checked after each statement.
    This works for most use cases, but becomes a major limitation when replacing
    records with unique column by using multiple statements.

    An example of swapping unique columns between records.

    # position is unique column
    old_item = Item.create!(position: 1)
    new_item = Item.create!(position: 2)
    
    Item.transaction do
      old_item.update!(position: 2)
      new_item.update!(position: 1)
    end

    Using the default behavior, the transaction would fail when executing the
    first UPDATE statement.

    By passing the :deferrable option to the add_unique_key statement in
    migrations, it's possible to defer this check.

    add_unique_key :items, [:position], deferrable: :immediate

    Passing deferrable: :immediate does not change the behaviour of the previous example,
    but allows manually deferring the check using SET CONSTRAINTS ALL DEFERRED within a transaction.
    This will cause the unique constraints to be checked after the transaction.

    It's also possible to adjust the default behavior from an immediate
    check (after the statement), to a deferred check (after the transaction):

    add_unique_key :items, [:position], deferrable: :deferred

    If you want to change an existing unique index to deferrable, you can use :using_index
    to create deferrable unique constraints.

    add_unique_key :items, deferrable: :deferred, using_index: "index_items_on_position"

  • Remove deprecated Tasks::DatabaseTasks.schema_file_type.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated config.active_record.partial_writes.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove deprecated ActiveRecord::Base config accessors.

    Rafael Mendonça França

  • Remove the :include_replicas argument from configs_for. Use :include_hidden argument instead.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

  • Allow applications to lookup a config via a custom hash key.

    If you have registered a custom config or want to find configs where the hash matches a specific key, now you can pass config_key to configs_for. For example if you have a db_config with the key vitess you can look up a database configuration hash by matching that key.

    ActiveRecord::Base.configurations.configs_for(env_name: "development", name: "primary", config_key: :vitess)
    ActiveRecord::Base.configurations.configs_for(env_name: "development", config_key: :vitess)

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

  • Allow applications to register a custom database configuration handler.

    Adds a mechanism for registering a custom handler for cases where you want database configurations to respond to custom methods. This is useful for non-Rails database adapters or tools like Vitess that you may want to configure differently from a standard HashConfig or UrlConfig.

    Given the following database YAML we want the animals db to create a CustomConfig object instead while the primary database will be a UrlConfig:

    development:
      primary:
        url: postgres://localhost/primary
      animals:
        url: postgres://localhost/animals
        custom_config:
          sharded: 1

    To register a custom handler first make a class that has your custom methods:

    class CustomConfig < ActiveRecord::DatabaseConfigurations::UrlConfig
      def sharded?
        custom_config.fetch("sharded", false)
      end
    
      private
        def custom_config
          configuration_hash.fetch(:custom_config)
        end
    end

    Then register the config in an initializer:

    ActiveRecord::DatabaseConfigurations.register_db_config_handler do |env_name, name, url, config|
      next unless config.key?(:custom_config)
      CustomConfig.new(env_name, name, url, config)
    end

    When the application is booted, configuration hashes with the :custom_config key will be CustomConfig objects and respond to sharded?. Applications must handle the condition in which Active Record should use their custom handler.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle and John Crepezzi

  • ActiveRecord::Base.serialize no longer uses YAML by default.

    YAML isn't particularly performant and can lead to security issues
    if not used carefully.

    Unfortunately there isn't really any good serializers in Ruby's stdlib
    to replace it.

    The obvious choice would be JSON, which is a fine format for this use case,
    however the JSON serializer in Ruby's stdlib isn't strict enough, as it fallback
    to casting unknown types to strings, which could lead to corrupted data.

    Some third party JSON libraries like Oj have a suitable strict mode.

    So it's preferable that users choose a serializer based on their own constraints.

    The original default can be restored by setting config.active_record.default_column_serializer = YAML.

    Jean Boussier

  • ActiveRecord::Base.serialize signature changed.

    Rather than a single positional argument that accepts two possible
    types of values, serialize now accepts two distinct keyword arguments.

    Before:

    serialize :content, JSON
    serialize :backtrace, Array

    After:

    serialize :content, coder: JSON
    serialize :backtrace, type: Array

    Jean Boussier

  • YAML columns use YAML.safe_dump if available.

    As of psych 5.1.0, YAML.safe_dump can now apply the same permitted
    types restrictions than YAML.safe_load.

    It's preferable to ensure the payload only use allowed types when we first
    try to serialize it, otherwise you may end up with invalid records in the
    database.

    Jean Boussier

  • ActiveRecord::QueryLogs better handle broken encoding.

    It's not uncommon when building queries with BLOB fields to contain
    binary data. Unless the call carefully encode the string in ASCII-8BIT
    it generally end up being encoded in UTF-8, and QueryLogs would
    end up failing on it.

    ActiveRecord::QueryLogs no longer depend on the query to be properly encoded.

    Jean Boussier

  • Fix a bug where ActiveRecord::Generators::ModelGenerator would not respect create_table_migration template overrides.

    rails g model create_books title:string content:text
    

    will now read from the create_table_migration.rb.tt template in the following locations in order:

    lib/templates/active_record/model/create_table_migration.rb
    lib/templates/active_record/migration/create_table_migration.rb
    

    Spencer Neste

  • ActiveRecord::Relation#explain now accepts options.

    For databases and adapters which support them (currently PostgreSQL
    and MySQL), options can be passed to explain to provide more
    detailed query plan analysis:

    Customer.where(id: 1).joins(:orders).explain(:analyze, :verbose)

    Reid Lynch

  • Multiple Arel::Nodes::SqlLiteral nodes can now be added together to
    form Arel::Nodes::Fragments nodes. This allows joining several pieces
    of SQL.

    Matthew Draper, Ole Friis

  • ActiveRecord::Base#signed_id raises if called on a new record.

    Previously it would return an ID that was not usable, since it was based on id = nil.

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Allow SQL warnings to be reported.

    Active Record configs can be set to enable SQL warning reporting.

    # Configure action to take when SQL query produces warning
    config.active_record.db_warnings_action = :raise
    
    # Configure allowlist of warnings that should always be ignored
    config.active_record.db_warnings_ignore = [
      /Invalid utf8mb4 character string/,
      "An exact warning message",
    ]

    This is supported for the MySQL and PostgreSQL adapters.

    Adrianna Chang, Paarth Madan

  • Add #regroup query method as a short-hand for .unscope(:group).group(fields)

    Example:

    Post.group(:title).regroup(:author)
    # SELECT `posts`.`*` FROM `posts` GROUP BY `posts`.`author`

    Danielius Visockas

  • PostgreSQL adapter method enable_extension now allows parameter to be [schema_name.]<extension_name>
    if the extension must be installed on another schema.

    Example: enable_extension('heroku_ext.hstore')

    Leonardo Luarte

  • Add :include option to add_index.

    Add support for including non-key columns in indexes for PostgreSQL
    with the INCLUDE parameter.

    add_index(:users, :email, include: [:id, :created_at])

    will result in:

    CREATE INDEX index_users_on_email USING btree (email) INCLUDE (id, created_at)

    Steve Abrams

  • ActiveRecord::Relation’s #any?, #none?, and #one? methods take an optional pattern
    argument, more closely matching their Enumerable equivalents.

    George Claghorn

  • Add ActiveRecord::Base.normalizes for declaring attribute normalizations.

    An attribute normalization is applied when the attribute is assigned or
    updated, and the normalized value will be persisted to the database. The
    normalization is also applied to the corresponding keyword argument of query
    methods, allowing records to be queried using unnormalized values.

    For example:

    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      normalizes :email, with: -> email { email.strip.downcase }
      normalizes :phone, with: -> phone { phone.delete("^0-9").delete_prefix("1") }
    end
    
    user = User.create(email: " CRUISE-CONTROL@EXAMPLE.COM\n")
    user.email                  # => "cruise-control@example.com"
    
    user = User.find_by(email: "\tCRUISE-CONTROL@EXAMPLE.COM ")
    user.email                  # => "cruise-control@example.com"
    user.email_before_type_cast # => "cruise-control@example.com"
    
    User.where(email: "\tCRUISE-CONTROL@EXAMPLE.COM ").count         # => 1
    User.where(["email = ?", "\tCRUISE-CONTROL@EXAMPLE.COM "]).count # => 0
    
    User.exists?(email: "\tCRUISE-CONTROL@EXAMPLE.COM ")         # => true
    User.exists?(["email = ?", "\tCRUISE-CONTROL@EXAMPLE.COM "]) # => false
    
    User.normalize_value_for(:phone, "+1 (555) 867-5309") # => "5558675309"

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Hide changes to before_committed! callback behaviour behind flag.

    In #46525, behavior around before_committed! callbacks was changed so that callbacks
    would run on every enrolled record in a transaction, not just the first copy of a record.
    This change in behavior is now controlled by a configuration option,
    config.active_record.before_committed_on_all_records. It will be enabled by default on Rails 7.1.

    Adrianna Chang

  • The namespaced_controller Query Log tag now matches the controller format

    For example, a request processed by NameSpaced::UsersController will now log as:

    :controller # "users"
    :namespaced_controller # "name_spaced/users"
    

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Return only unique ids from ActiveRecord::Calculations#ids

    Updated ActiveRecord::Calculations#ids to only return the unique ids of the base model
    when using eager_load, preload and includes.

    Post.find_by(id: 1).comments.count
    # => 5
    Post.includes(:comments).where(id: 1).pluck(:id)
    # => [1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
    Post.includes(:comments).where(id: 1).ids
    # => [1]

    Joshua Young

  • Stop using LOWER() for case-insensitive queries on citext columns

    Previously, LOWER() was added for e.g. uniqueness validations with
    case_sensitive: false.
    It wasn't mentioned in the documentation that the index without LOWER()
    wouldn't be used in this case.

    Phil Pirozhkov

  • Extract #sync_timezone_changes method in AbstractMysqlAdapter to enable subclasses
    to sync database timezone changes without overriding #raw_execute.

    Adrianna Chang, Paarth Madan

  • Do not write additional new lines when dumping sql migration versions

    This change updates the insert_versions_sql function so that the database insert string containing the current database migration versions does not end with two additional new lines.

    Misha Schwartz

  • Fix composed_of value freezing and duplication.

    Previously composite values exhibited two confusing behaviors:

    • When reading a compositve value it'd NOT be frozen, allowing it to get out of sync with its underlying database
      columns.
    • When writing a compositve value the argument would be frozen, potentially confusing the caller.

    Currently, composite values instantiated based on database columns are frozen (addressing the first issue) and
    assigned compositve values are duplicated and the duplicate is frozen (addressing the second issue).

    Greg Navis

  • Fix redundant updates to the column insensitivity cache

    Fixed redundant queries checking column capability for insensitive
    comparison.

  • Allow disabling methods generated by ActiveRecord.enum.

  • Avoid validating belongs_to association if it has not changed.

    Previously, when updating a record, Active Record will perform an extra query to check for the presence of
    belongs_to associations (if the presence is configured to be mandatory), even if that attribute hasn't changed.

    Currently, only belongs_to-related columns are checked for presence. It is possible to have orphaned records with
    this approach. To avoid this problem, you need to use a foreign key.

    This behavior can be controlled by configuration:

    config.active_record.belongs_to_required_validates_foreign_key = false

    and will be disabled by default with config.load_defaults 7.1.

    fatkodima

  • has_one and belongs_to associations now define a reset_association method
    on the owner model (where association is the name of the association). This
    method unloads the cached associate record, if any, and causes the next access
    to query it from the database.

    George Claghorn

  • Allow per attribute setting of YAML permitted classes (safe load) and unsafe load.

    Carlos Palhares

  • Add a build persistence method

    Provides a wrapper for new, to provide feature parity with creates
    ability to create multiple records from an array of hashes, using the
    same notation as the build method on associations.

    Sean Denny

  • Raise on assignment to readonly attributes

    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
      attr_readonly :content
    end
    Post.create!(content: "cannot be updated")
    post.content # "cannot be updated"
    post.content = "something else" # => ActiveRecord::ReadonlyAttributeError

    Previously, assignment would succeed but silently not write to the database.

    This behavior can be controlled by configuration:

    config.active_record.raise_on_assign_to_attr_readonly = true

    and will be enabled by default with config.load_defaults 7.1.

    Alex Ghiculescu, Hartley McGuire

  • Allow unscoping of preload and eager_load associations

    Added the ability to unscope preload and eager_load associations just like
    includes, joins, etc. See ActiveRecord::QueryMethods::VALID_UNSCOPING_VALUES
    for the full list of supported unscopable scopes.

    query.unscope(:eager_load, :preload).group(:id).select(:id)

  • Add automatic filtering of encrypted attributes on inspect

    This feature is enabled by default but can be disabled with

    config.active_record.encryption.add_to_filter_parameters = false

  • Clear locking column on #dup

    This change fixes not to duplicate locking_column like id and timestamps.

    car = Car.create!
    car.touch
    car.lock_version #=> 1
    car.dup.lock_version #=> 0
    

    Shouichi Kamiya, Seonggi Yang, Ryohei UEDA

  • Invalidate transaction as early as possible

    After rescuing a TransactionRollbackError exception Rails invalidates transactions earlier in the flow
    allowing the framework to skip issuing the ROLLBACK statement in more cases.
    Only affects adapters that have savepoint_errors_invalidate_transactions? configured as true,
    which at this point is only applicable to the mysql2 adapter.

    Nikita Vasilevsky

  • Allow configuring columns list to be used in SQL queries issued by an ActiveRecord::Base object

    It is now possible to configure columns list that will be used to build an SQL query clauses when
    updating, deleting or reloading an ActiveRecord::Base object

    class Developer < ActiveRecord::Base
      query_constraints :company_id, :id
    end
    developer = Developer.first.update(name: "Bob")
    # => UPDATE "developers" SET "name" = 'Bob' WHERE "developers"."company_id" = 1 AND "developers"."id" = 1

    Nikita Vasilevsky

  • Adds validate to foreign keys and check constraints in schema.rb

    Previously, schema.rb would not record if validate: false had been used when adding a foreign key or check
    constraint, so restoring a database from the schema could result in foreign keys or check constraints being
    incorrectly validated.

    Tommy Graves

  • Adapter #execute methods now accept an allow_retry option. When set to true, the SQL statement will be
    retried, up to the database's configured connection_retries value, upon encountering connection-related errors.

    Adrianna Chang

  • Only trigger after_commit :destroy callbacks when a database row is deleted.

    This prevents after_commit :destroy callbacks from being triggered again
    when destroy is called multiple times on the same record.

    Ben Sheldon

  • Fix ciphertext_for for yet-to-be-encrypted values.

    Previously, ciphertext_for returned the cleartext of values that had not
    yet been encrypted, such as with an unpersisted record:

    Post.encrypts :body
    
    post = Post.create!(body: "Hello")
    post.ciphertext_for(:body)
    # => "{\"p\":\"abc..."
    
    post.body = "World"
    post.ciphertext_for(:body)
    # => "World"

    Now, ciphertext_for will always return the ciphertext of encrypted
    attributes:

    Post.encrypts :body
    
    post = Post.create!(body: "Hello")
    post.ciphertext_for(:body)
    # => "{\"p\":\"abc..."
    
    post.body = "World"
    post.ciphertext_for(:body)
    # => "{\"p\":\"xyz..."

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Fix a bug where using groups and counts with long table names would return incorrect results.

    Shota Toguchi, Yusaku Ono

  • Fix encryption of column default values.

    Previously, encrypted attributes that used column default values appeared to
    be encrypted on create, but were not:

    Book.encrypts :name
    
    book = Book.create!
    book.name
    # => "<untitled>"
    book.name_before_type_cast
    # => "{\"p\":\"abc..."
    book.reload.name_before_type_cast
    # => "<untitled>"

    Now, attributes with column default values are encrypted:

    Book.encrypts :name
    
    book = Book.create!
    book.name
    # => "<untitled>"
    book.name_before_type_cast
    # => "{\"p\":\"abc..."
    book.reload.name_before_type_cast
    # => "{\"p\":\"abc..."

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Deprecate delegation from Base to connection_handler.

    Calling Base.clear_all_connections!, Base.clear_active_connections!, Base.clear_reloadable_connections! and Base.flush_idle_connections! is deprecated. Please call these methods on the connection handler directly. In future Rails versions, the delegation from Base to the connection_handler will be removed.

  • Validate options when managing columns and tables in migrations.

    If an invalid option is passed to a migration method like create_table and add_column, an error will be raised
    instead of the option being silently ignored. Validation of the options will only be applied for new migrations
    that are created.

    Guo Xiang Tan, George Wambold

  • Update query log tags to use the SQLCommenter format by default. See #46179

    To opt out of SQLCommenter-formatted query log tags, set config.active_record.query_log_tags_format = :legacy. By default, this is set to :sqlcommenter.

    Modulitos and Iheanyi

  • Allow any ERB in the database.yml when creating rake tasks.

    Any ERB can be used in database.yml even if it accesses environment
    configurations.

    Deprecates config.active_record.suppress_multiple_database_warning.

    Eike Send

  • Add table to error for duplicate column definitions.

    If a migration defines duplicate columns for a table, the error message
    shows which table it concerns.

    Petrik de Heus

  • Fix erroneous nil default precision on virtual datetime columns.

    Prior to this change, virtual datetime columns did not have the same
    default precision as regular datetime columns, resulting in the following
    being erroneously equivalent:

    t.virtual :name, type: datetime,                 as: "expression"
    t.virtual :name, type: datetime, precision: nil, as: "expression"
    

    This change fixes the default precision lookup, so virtual and regular
    datetime column default precisions match.

    Sam Bostock

  • Use connection from #with_raw_connection in #quote_string.

    This ensures that the string quoting is wrapped in the reconnect and retry logic
    that #with_raw_connection offers.

    Adrianna Chang

  • Add expires_at option to signed_id.

    Shouichi Kamiya

  • Allow applications to set retry deadline for query retries.

    Building on the work done in #44576 and #44591, we extend the logic that automatically
    reconnects database connections to take into account a timeout limit. We won't retry
    a query if a given amount of time has elapsed since the query was first attempted. This
    value defaults to nil, meaning that all retryable queries are retried regardless of time elapsed,
    but this can be changed via the retry_deadline option in the database config.

    Adrianna Chang

  • Fix a case where the query cache can return wrong values. See #46044

    Aaron Patterson

  • Support MySQL's ssl-mode option for MySQLDatabaseTasks.

    Verifying the identity of the database server requires setting the ssl-mode
    option to VERIFY_CA or VERIFY_IDENTITY. This option was previously ignored
    for MySQL database tasks like creating a database and dumping the structure.

    Petrik de Heus

  • Move ActiveRecord::InternalMetadata to an independent object.

    ActiveRecord::InternalMetadata no longer inherits from ActiveRecord::Base and is now an independent object that should be instantiated with a connection. This class is private and should not be used by applications directly. If you want to interact with the schema migrations table, please access it on the connection directly, for example: ActiveRecord::Base.connection.schema_migration.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

  • Deprecate quoting ActiveSupport::Duration as an integer

    Using ActiveSupport::Duration as an interpolated bind parameter in a SQL
    string template is deprecated. To avoid this warning, you should explicitly
    convert the duration to a more specific database type. For example, if you
    want to use a duration as an integer number of seconds:

    Record.where("duration = ?", 1.hour.to_i)
    

    If you want to use a duration as an ISO 8601 string:

    Record.where("duration = ?", 1.hour.iso8601)
    

    Aram Greenman

  • Allow QueryMethods#in_order_of to order by a string column name.

    Post.in_order_of("id", [4,2,3,1]).to_a
    Post.joins(:author).in_order_of("authors.name", ["Bob", "Anna", "John"]).to_a

    Igor Kasyanchuk

  • Move ActiveRecord::SchemaMigration to an independent object.

    ActiveRecord::SchemaMigration no longer inherits from ActiveRecord::Base and is now an independent object that should be instantiated with a connection. This class is private and should not be used by applications directly. If you want to interact with the schema migrations table, please access it on the connection directly, for example: ActiveRecord::Base.connection.schema_migration.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

  • Deprecate all_connection_pools and make connection_pool_list more explicit.

    Following on #45924 all_connection_pools is now deprecated. connection_pool_list will either take an explicit role or applications can opt into the new behavior by passing :all.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

  • Fix connection handler methods to operate on all pools.

    active_connections?, clear_active_connections!, clear_reloadable_connections!, clear_all_connections!, and flush_idle_connections! now operate on all pools by default. Previously they would default to using the current_role or :writing role unless specified.

    Eileen M. Uchitelle

  • Allow ActiveRecord::QueryMethods#select to receive hash values.

    Currently, select might receive only raw sql and symbols to define columns and aliases to select.

    With this change we can provide hash as argument, for example:

    Post.joins(:comments).select(posts: [:id, :title, :created_at], comments: [:id, :body, :author_id])
    #=> "SELECT \"posts\".\"id\", \"posts\".\"title\", \"posts\".\"created_at\", \"comments\".\"id\", \"comments\".\"body\", \"comments\".\"author_id\"
    #   FROM \"posts\" INNER JOIN \"comments\" ON \"comments\".\"post_id\" = \"posts\".\"id\""
    
    Post.joins(:comments).select(posts: { id: :post_id, title: :post_title }, comments: { id: :comment_id, body: :comment_body })
    #=> "SELECT posts.id as post_id, posts.title as post_title, comments.id as comment_id, comments.body as comment_body
    #    FROM \"posts\" INNER JOIN \"comments\" ON \"comments\".\"post_id\" = \"posts\".\"id\""

  • Adapts virtual attributes on ActiveRecord::Persistence#becomes.

    When source and target classes have a different set of attributes adapts
    attributes such that the extra attributes from target are added.

    class Person < ApplicationRecord
    end
    
    class WebUser < Person
      attribute :is_admin, :boolean
      after_initialize :set_admin
    
      def set_admin
        write_attribute(:is_admin, email =~ /@ourcompany\.com$/)
      end
    end
    
    person = Person.find_by(email: "email@ourcompany.com")
    person.respond_to? :is_admin
    # => false
    person.becomes(WebUser).is_admin?
    # => true

    Jacopo Beschi, Sampson Crowley

  • Fix ActiveRecord::QueryMethods#in_order_of to include nils, to match the
    behavior of Enumerable#in_order_of.

    For example, Post.in_order_of(:title, [nil, "foo"]) will now include posts
    with nil titles, the same as Post.all.to_a.in_order_of(:title, [nil, "foo"]).

    fatkodima

  • Optimize add_timestamps to use a single SQL statement.

    add_timestamps :my_table

    Now results in the following SQL:

    ALTER TABLE "my_table" ADD COLUMN "created_at" datetime(6) NOT NULL, ADD COLUMN "updated_at" datetime(6) NOT NULL

    Iliana Hadzhiatanasova

  • Add drop_enum migration command for PostgreSQL

    This does the inverse of create_enum. Before dropping an enum, ensure you have
    dropped columns that depend on it.

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Adds support for if_exists option when removing a check constraint.

    The remove_check_constraint method now accepts an if_exists option. If set
    to true an error won't be raised if the check constraint doesn't exist.

    Margaret Parsa and Aditya Bhutani

  • find_or_create_by now try to find a second time if it hits a unicity constraint.

    find_or_create_by always has been inherently racy, either creating multiple
    duplicate records or failing with ActiveRecord::RecordNotUnique depending on
    whether a proper unicity constraint was set.

    create_or_find_by was introduced for this use case, however it's quite wasteful
    when the record is expected to exist most of the time, as INSERT require to send
    more data than SELECT and require more work from the database. Also on some
    databases it can actually consume a primary key increment which is undesirable.

    So for case where most of the time the record is expected to exist, find_or_create_by
    can be made race-condition free by re-trying the find if the create failed
    with ActiveRecord::RecordNotUnique. This assumes that the table has the proper
    unicity constraints, if not, find_or_create_by will still lead to duplicated records.

    Jean Boussier, Alex Kitchens

  • Introduce a simpler constructor API for ActiveRecord database adapters.

    Previously the adapter had to know how to build a new raw connection to
    support reconnect, but also expected to be passed an initial already-
    established connection.

    When manually creating an adapter instance, it will now accept a single
    config hash, and only establish the real connection on demand.

    Matthew Draper

  • Avoid redundant SELECT 1 connection-validation query during DB pool
    checkout when possible.

    If the first query run during a request is known to be idempotent, it can be
    used directly to validate the connection, saving a network round-trip.

    Matthew Draper

  • Automatically reconnect broken database connections when safe, even
    mid-request.

    When an error occurs while attempting to run a known-idempotent query, and
    not inside a transaction, it is safe to immediately reconnect to the
    database server and try again, so this is now the default behavior.

    This new default should always be safe -- to support that, it's consciously
    conservative about which queries are considered idempotent -- but if
    necessary it can be disabled by setting the connection_retries connection
    option to 0.

    Matthew Draper

  • Avoid removing a PostgreSQL extension when there are dependent objects.

    Previously, removing an extension also implicitly removed dependent objects. Now, this will raise an error.

    You can force removing the extension:

    disable_extension :citext, force: :cascade

    Fixes #29091.

  • Allow destroy_association_async_job= to be configured with a class string instead of a constant.

    Defers an autoloading dependency between ActiveRecord::Base and ActiveJob::Base
    and moves the configuration of ActiveRecord::DestroyAssociationAsyncJob
    from ActiveJob to ActiveRecord.

    Deprecates ActiveRecord::ActiveJobRequiredError and now raises a NameError
    if the job class is unloadable or an ActiveRecord::ConfigurationError if
    dependent: :destroy_async is declared on an association but there is no job
    class configured.

    Ben Sheldon

  • Fix ActiveRecord::Store to serialize as a regular Hash

    Previously it would serialize as an ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess
    which is wasteful and cause problem with YAML safe_load.

    Jean Boussier

  • Add timestamptz as a time zone aware type for PostgreSQL

    This is required for correctly parsing timestamp with time zone values in your database.

    If you don't want this, you can opt out by adding this initializer:

    ActiveRecord::Base.time_zone_aware_types -= [:timestamptz]

    Alex Ghiculescu

  • Add new ActiveRecord::Base.generates_token_for API.

    Currently, signed_id fulfills the role of generating tokens for e.g.
    resetting a password. However, signed IDs cannot reflect record state, so
    if a token is intended to be single-use, it must be tracked in a database at
    least until it expires.

    With generates_token_for, a token can embed data from a record. When
    using the token to fetch the record, the data from the token and the current
    data from the record will be compared. If the two do not match, the token
    will be treated as invalid, the same as if it had expired. For example:

    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      has_secure_password
    
      generates_token_for :password_reset, expires_in: 15.minutes do
        # A password's BCrypt salt changes when the password is updated.
        # By embedding (part of) the salt in a token, the token will
        # expire when the password is updated.
        BCrypt::Password.new(password_digest).salt[-10..]
      end
    end
    
    user = User.first
    token = user.generate_token_for(:password_reset)
    
    User.find_by_token_for(:password_reset, token) # => user
    
    user.update!(password: "new password")
    User.find_by_token_for(:password_reset, token) # => nil

    Jonathan Hefner

  • Optimize Active Record batching for whole table iterations.

    Previously, in_batches got all the ids and constructed an IN-based query for each batch.
    When iterating over the whole tables, this approach is not optimal as it loads unneeded ids and
    IN queries with lots of items are slow.

    Now, whole table iterations use range iteration (id >= x AND id <= y) by default which can make iteration
    several times faster. E.g., tested on a PostgreSQL table with 10 million records: querying (253s vs 30s),
    updating (288s vs 124s), deleting (268s vs 83s).

    Only whole table iterations use this style of iteration by default. You can disable this behavior by passing use_ranges: false.
    If you iterate over the table and the only condition is, e.g., archived_at: nil (and only a tiny fraction
    of the records are archived), it makes sense to opt in to this approach:

    Project.where(archived_at: nil).in_batches(use_ranges: true) do |relation|
      # do something
    end

    See #45414 for more details.

    fatkodima

  • .with query method added. Construct common table expressions with ease and get ActiveRecord::Relation back.

    Post.with(posts_with_comments: Post.where("comments_count > ?", 0))
    # => ActiveRecord::Relation
    # WITH posts_with_comments AS (SELECT * FROM posts WHERE (comments_count > 0)) SELECT * FROM posts

    Vlado Cingel

  • Don't establish a new connection if an identical pool exists already.

    Previously, if establish_connection was called on a class that already had an established connection, the existing connection would be removed regardless of whether it was the same config. Now if a pool is found with the same values as the new connection, the existing connection will be returned instead of creating a new one.

    This has a slight change in behavior if application code is depending on a new connection being established regardless of whether it's identical to an existing connection. If the old behavior is desirable, applications should call ActiveRecord::Base#remove_connection before establishing a new one. Calling establish_connection with a different config works the same way as it did previously.

  • Introduce strategy pattern for executing migrations.

    By default, migrations will use a strategy object that delegates the method
    to the connection adapter. Consumers can implement custom strategy objects
    to change how their migrations run.

    Adrianna Chang

  • Add adapter option disallowing foreign keys

    This adds a new option to be added to database.yml which enables skipping
    foreign key constraints usage even if the underlying database supports them.

        database: storage/development.sqlite3
        foreign_keys: false

  • Add configurable deprecation warning for singular associations

    This adds a deprecation warning when using the plural name of a singular associations in where.
    It is possible to opt into the new more performant behavior with config.active_record.allow_deprecated_singular_associations_name = false

    Adam Hess

  • Run transactional callbacks on the freshest instance to save a given
    record within a transaction.

    When multiple Active Record instances change the same record within a
    transaction, Rails runs after_commit or after_rollback callbacks for
    only one of them. config.active_record.run_commit_callbacks_on_first_saved_instances_in_transaction
    was added to specify how Rails chooses which instance receives the
    callbacks. The framework defaults were changed to use the new logic.

    When config.active_record.run_commit_callbacks_on_first_saved_instances_in_transaction
    is true, transactional callbacks are run on the first instance to save,
    even though its instance state may be stale.

    When it is false, which is the new framework default starting with version
    7.1, transactional callbacks are run on the instances with the freshest
    instance state. Those instances are chosen as follows:

    • In general, run transactional callbacks on the last instance to save a
      given record within the transaction.
    • There are two exceptions:
      • If the record is created within the transaction, then updated by
        another instance, after_create_commit callbacks will be run on the
        second instance. This is instead of the after_update_commit
        callbacks that would naively be run based on that instance’s state.
      • If the record is destroyed within the transaction, then
        after_destroy_commit callbacks will be fired on the last destroyed
        instance, even if a stale instance subsequently performed an update
        (which will have affected 0 rows).

    Cameron Bothner and Mitch Vollebregt

  • Enable strict strings mode for SQLite3Adapter.

    Configures SQLite with a strict strings mode, which disables double-quoted string literals.

    SQLite has some quirks around double-quoted string literals.
    It first tries to consider double-quoted strings as identifier names, but if they don't exist
    it then considers them as string literals. Because of this, typos can silently go unnoticed.
    For example, it is possible to create an index for a non existing column.
    See SQLite documentation for more details.

    If you don't want this behavior, you can disable it via:

    # config/application.rb
    config.active_record.sqlite3_adapter_strict_strings_by_default = false

    Fixes #27782.

    fatkodima, Jean Boussier

  • Resolve issue where a relation cache_version could be left stale.

    Previously, when reset was called on a relation object it did not reset the cache_versions
    ivar. This led to a confusing situation where despite having the correct data the relation
    still reported a stale cache_version.

    Usage:

    developers = Developer.all
    developers.cache_version
    
    Developer.update_all(updated_at: Time.now.utc + 1.second)
    
    developers.cache_version # Stale cache_version
    developers.reset
    developers.cache_version # Returns the current correct cache_version

  • change_column_null raises if a non-boolean argument is provided

    Previously if you provided a non-boolean argument, change_column_null would

    change_column_null :table, :column, true # good

    uniqueness of each attribute having a uniqueness validation, even if that attribute hasn't changed.
    If the database has the corresponding unique index, then this validation can never fail for persisted
    records, and we could safely skip it.

    Since version 5.5 the default has been off, we no longer have to manually turn it off.

  • Avoid queries when performing calculations on contradictory relations.

    Previously calculations would make a query even when passed a
    contradiction, such as User.where(id: []).count. We no longer perform a
    query in that scenario.

    This applies to the following calculations: count, sum, average,
    minimum and maximum

  • Allow using aliased attributes with insert_all/upsert_all.

    class Book < ApplicationRecord
      alias_attribute :title, :name
    end
    
    Book.insert_all [{ title: "Remote", author_id: 1 }], returning: :title

  • Support encrypted attributes on columns with default db values.

    This adds support for encrypted attributes defined on columns with default values.
    It will encrypt those values at creation time. Before, it would raise an
    error unless config.active_record.encryption.support_unencrypted_data was true.

  • Allow overriding reading_request? in DatabaseSelector::Resolver

    The default implementation checks if a request is a get? or head?,
    but you can now change it to anything you like. If the method returns true,
    Resolver#read gets called meaning the request could be served by the
    replica database.

  • Remove ActiveRecord.legacy_connection_handling.

  • rails db:schema:{dump,load} now checks ENV["SCHEMA_FORMAT"] before config

    Since rails db:structure:{dump,load} was deprecated there wasn't a simple
    way to dump a schema to both SQL and Ruby formats. You can now do this with
    an environment variable. For example:

    SCHEMA_FORMAT=sql rake db:schema:dump

  • Fixed MariaDB default function support.

    Defaults would be written wrong in "db/schema.rb" and not work correctly
    if using db:schema:load. Further more the function name would be
    added as string content when saving new records.

  • Add active_record.destroy_association_async_batch_size configuration

    This allows applications to specify the maximum number of records that will
    be destroyed in a single background job by the dependent: :destroy_async
    association option. By default, the current behavior will remain the same:
    when a parent record is destroyed, all dependent records will be destroyed
    in a single background job. If the number of dependent records is greater
    than this configuration, the records will be destroyed in multiple
    background jobs.

  • Fix remove_foreign_key with :if_exists option when foreign key actually exists.

  • Remove --no-comments flag in structure dumps for PostgreSQL

    This broke some apps that used custom schema comments. If you don't want
    comments in your structure dump, you can use:

    ActiveRecord::Tasks::DatabaseTasks.structure_dump_flags = ['--no-comments']

  • Reduce the memory footprint of fixtures accessors.

    Until now fixtures accessors were eagerly defined using define_method.
    So the memory usage was directly dependent of the number of fixtures and
    test suites.

    Instead fixtures accessors are now implemented with method_missing,
    so they incur much less memory and CPU overhead.

    Jean Boussier

  • Fix config.active_record.destroy_association_async_job configuration

    config.active_record.destroy_association_async_job should allow
    applications to specify the job that will be used to destroy associated
    records in the background for has_many associations with the
    dependent: :destroy_async option. Previously, that was ignored, which
    meant the default ActiveRecord::DestroyAssociationAsyncJob always
    destroyed records in the background.

  • Reversed the order of INSERT statements in structure.sql dumps

    This should decrease the likelihood of merge conflicts. New migrations
    will now be added at the top of the list.

    For existing apps, there will be a large diff the next time structure.sql
    is generated.

    Fixes #44307.

  • Fix dropping DB connections after serialization failures and deadlocks.

    Prior to 6.1.4, serialization failures and deadlocks caused rollbacks to be
    issued for both real transactions and savepoints. This breaks MySQL which
    disallows rollbacks of savepoints following a deadlock.

    6.1.4 removed these rollbacks, for both transactions and savepoints, causing
    the DB connection to be left in an unknown state and thus discarded.

    These rollbacks are now restored, except for savepoints on MySQL.

    Thomas Morgan

  • Make ActiveRecord::ConnectionPool Fiber-safe

    When ActiveSupport::IsolatedExecutionState.isolation_level is set to :fiber,
    the connection pool now supports multiple Fibers from the same Thread checking
    out connections from the pool.

  • Add update_attribute! to ActiveRecord::Persistence

    Similar to update_attribute, but raises ActiveRecord::RecordNotSaved when a before_* callback throws :abort.

    class Topic < ActiveRecord::Base
      before_save :check_title
    
      def check_title
        throw(:abort) if title == "abort"
      end
    end
    
    topic = Topic.create(title: "Test Title")
    # #=> #<Topic title: "Test Title">
    topic.update_attribute!(:title, "Another Title")
    # #=> #<Topic title: "Another Title">
    topic.update_attribute!(:title, "abort")
    # raises ActiveRecord::RecordNotSaved

  • Avoid loading every record in ActiveRecord::Relation#pretty_print

    # Before
    pp Foo.all # Loads the whole table.
    
    # After
    pp Foo.all # Shows 10 items and an ellipsis.

  • Change QueryMethods#in_order_of to drop records not listed in values.

    in_order_of now filters down to the values provided, to match the behavior of the Enumerable version.

    Kevin Newton

  • Allow named expression indexes to be revertible.

    Previously, the following code would raise an error in a reversible migration executed while rolling back, due to the index name not being used in the index removal.

    add_index(:settings, "(data->'property')", using: :gin, name: :index_settings_data_property)

    Fixes #43331.

    Oliver Günther

  • Fix incorrect argument in PostgreSQL structure dump tasks.

    Updating the --no-comment argument added in Rails 7 to the correct --no-comments argument.

    Alex Dent

  • Fix migration compatibility to create SQLite references/belongs_to column as integer when migration version is 6.0.

    Reference/belongs_to in migrations with version 6.0 were creating columns as
    bigint instead of integer for the SQLite Adapter.

    Marcelo Lauxen

  • Fix QueryMethods#in_order_of to handle empty order list.

    Post.in_order_of(:id, []).to_a

    Also more explicitly set the column as secondary order, so that any other
    value is still ordered.

    Jean Boussier

  • Fix quoting of column aliases generated by calculation methods.

    Since the alias is derived from the table name, we can't assume the result
    is a valid identifier.

    class Test < ActiveRecord::Base
      self.table_name = '1abc'
    end
    Test.group(:id).count
    # syntax error at or near "1" (ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid)
    # LINE 1: SELECT COUNT(*) AS count_all, "1abc"."id" AS 1abc_id FROM "1...

    Jean Boussier

  • Add authenticate_by when using has_secure_password.

    authenticate_by is intended to replace code like the following, which
    returns early when a user with a matching email is not found:

    User.find_by(email: "...")&.authenticate("...")

    Such code is vulnerable to timing-based enumeration attacks, wherein an
    attacker can determine if a user account with a given email exists. After
    confirming that an account exists, the attacker can try passwords associated
    with that email address from other leaked databases, in case the user
    re-used a password across multiple sites (a common practice). Additionally,
    knowing an account email address allows the attacker to attempt a targeted
    phishing ("spear phishing") attack.

    authenticate_by addresses the vulnerability by taking the same amount of
    time regardless of whether a user with a matching email is found:

    User.authenticate_by(email: "...", password: "...")

Action View

  • Introduce ActionView::TestCase.register_parser

    register_parser :rss, -> rendered { RSS::Parser.parse(rendered) }
    
    test "renders RSS" do
      article = Article.create!(title: "Hello, world")
    
      render formats: :rss, partial: article
    
      assert_equal "Hello, world", rendered.rss.items.last.title
    end

    By default, register parsers for :html and :json.

  • Fix simple_format with blank wrapper_tag option returns plain html tag

    By default simple_format method returns the text wrapped with <p>. But if we explicitly specify
    the wrapper_tag: nil in the options, it returns the text wrapped with <></> tag.

    Before:

    simple_format("Hello World", {},  { wrapper_tag: nil })
    # <>Hello World</>

    After:

    simple_format("Hello World", {},  { wrapper_tag: nil })
    # <p>Hello World</p>
